Re: Serial connection over Cat5 getting corrupted

["Frank Mc Alinden" <frankmc@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Paul
Had the same issue when i first put hv in my node 0  which was a
short run...even at 9600 baud still had issues ........Fixed it by
installing a pair of rs232 /422  convertors .....I suspect it was a cheap
line driver on my pc as i have has issues with the same serial port when
connected to my cbus touchscreen...........

Not able to connect it to your nerwork using an MSS100 ....??? Done this
with hv and other kit ...

HTH

Subject: [ukha_d] Serial connection over Cat5 getting corrupted


I've just wired up my aquarium computer (RS232) via my structured Cat5
cabling back to node0. I guess there's about 10-15m in the run.

The trouble is, I'm getting some corruption in the sent data - spurious
characters and line feeds missed off.

Any ideas what I can do to improve the comms?

Ta,

Paul.
